nice. I also have a white W204. i noticed that you got the trunk spoiler now.
I actually like the chrom door strip and the front silver color grill on mine though.. but still looks nice. i wonder when the roof spoiler is gonna come out.

The OEM roof spolier is already available. Your AD should be able to order it. Now the CF one from Euro-tech won't be out till late July, thats the one I want.

thanks Ron

i knew before i got my car that you can get them from the dealer. But no way i am paying $500 for it. I was talking about aftermarket/replica spoiler. Probably not the Carbon Fiber one though... do you know if they will come out with a regular PU one?

I saw one on E-bay germany but with the exchange rate it was basically the same as here. Replica fiberglass or PU I haven't heard anything yet.

Looks HOT !! I think the roof spoiler would make it look hotter though it would be a hard decision concerning the color of it. With the pano roof black would match it but i dont think youd notice it as much ? Regardless congrats

The rims are WORK T1S. I just found out my springs are H&R sport not super sport, but for some reason it looks really low. I don't have any rubbing issues at all.

I didn't know they make a roof spoiler for it. I will look into it. I should be installing the rear view camera next week. Will post some pictures when done.

Also thanks for the comments.

was at the dealer today to have my antena painted. (did you guys noticed that your antena is black?) anyway, asked the guy how much to paint the amber side markers. they want to charge $75-100 and that's if I uninstall and install them myself. Might as well get a set of clear lenses.

trialor, remember on the other thread i said this might be super sport then I went to my mechanic and checked the box it says sport. I didn't cut any coils. So i am really not sure why it is so low. Maybe I will take a few more pictures just to compare with others.

X3 and 2012 C coming soon
That's it, my chrome is coming off right now! Also, it is possible that the OD of the wheel and tire set makes the fender gap look smaller.
